The timer was easy to use worked as I expected it hopefully it Last a while, the last one I had didn’t make it two years. It has a seven year guarantee supposedly not sure how to get a refund on the old one. I don’t have the receipt for that one we’ll see.

Less than 2 months of use and doesn't work now
Bought this to set up a drip system for my raised beds while we were gone and only used for about 2 months. Only used it when we were gone for more than 2 days. It does a good job of managing the water when it is working. Batteries don't last very long in this system so have several on hand. Took it up at the end of the season and stored it until this year. When I got it back out to use it this year it will not come on at all. Frustrating to say the least.

    Unsure yet. Snowbirds, did some landscaping on our trailer site. Set up a place for our planter pots and installed a sprinkler. Hope to see the plants thriving next fall. Let you know then what I think of it. It’s simple, easy to set up and worked very well under testing trials. Affordable. Will buy again for home gardening this summer.

    Stopped working after six months. Knob doesn't correspond with what it is supposed to and some of the settings do not display.

      Works very well and was just what I needed for a temporary need. Very easy to program and use.

      Excellent product that's much less costly than a sprinkler system and just as effective!

      A piece of junk
      I bought 2 of these single outlet timers about 2 years ago. One was still working last year 2023 but the other would work at all. So I bought a new one last year to replace it. This year 2024 the original one is still working only changed batteries o e so far on it. The one I bought in 2023 was showing low batteries. So replaced them. But you can hear it click to turn on flow but no water. So beware when buying this unit and get the 2 year warranty because you will probably need it.

        Instructions were clear. Setup took only a few minutes. Attached easily to the hose bibb. Settings knob easily rotates and clicks to switch between Auto and Off as needed.

        Only has 3 zones for 4 hoses
        I have big sprinklers for an event and need each hose to run on their own for pressure- thought this was the solution but it's only 3 time zones so two hoses have to share a time. Bummer

          They leak
          I purchased three of these units. After just a few days, two of the units started to leak. You can’t tell but you can definitely hear water going through the system. I do not recommend these

            Replace the one I bought last year broken after the Winter. It appears the plastic valve cannot handle the outdoor Winter weather.

            2 Separate Units Non-Functional Out of Box
            Two separate units did not work out of the box. Timer setting worked for one temporarily, do not hit "manual" function. Both units stopped working once this button was pressed.
